HTML - Another Question: Firefox Compatibility.
Hey everyone.
I just stumbled upon another little problem: I think the picture talks for itself: http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b3...enoctrober.jpg This is the way it comes up in Mozilla, doesn't do that in IE though. Help? Similar TutorialsHi My use of HTML is pretty basic but adequate. On my charity website it appears OK in I.E. which I think I'm right in saying accounts for around 95% of users (?). However I find that in a Firefox browser my textural content is inconsistent, using a different (default?) font to my Verdana, and not resulting in the same size as used in the I.E. structure. Trial and error on the Firefox browser gets it right there, but then wrong on I.E. Is there (for starters) one (or more) tag(s) to a) set a default text in the Head for say Verdana Bold Size 2 colour #330099, then if so b) how to change size for any variations in body. Will welcome any advice on this matter. willemm i made a website and everything looks good on it when i view it in firefox but when i use explorer some of the images wont show up, just has the red x in the corner. any suggestions whats goin on? Hello, Still looking for someone to help us solve the problem we are having with our website. www.random-rocks.com the buttons, etc... only work in Internet Explorer and NOT in Firefox ? Need someone to see source code and let us know WHAT AND WHY ? this is happening? We did get a response, but tried it and doesn't seem to be the answer, unless we are not doing something right. PLEASE, PLEASE HELP US. a.s.a.p. THANK YOU Hello all, I've just made my first website, and tested it initially in IE 8 and then viewed in Safari, Chrome, and Firefox 3. It displays perfect in IE, Safari and Chrome, but Firefox has some quirks! Issue 1: My bordered pictures are displaying a blue border, which is yellow in the other browsers. Though they are also links, other non-bordered picture links don't have it, and I have set the links colours in the CSS to be yellow and grey anyway (which works fine for the text links). Issue 2: Small images next to each other won't sit side by side, they jump to the next line. Both these issues can be seen on this page (if viewed in Firefox, naturally!): http://www.swingcopation.co.uk/whatwecando.html Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! I can post the code for the page if required. Thanks, Nubbin. Hi Folks, I've been working on a web portal (my first ever) and it works nicely in Firefox. I'm using JavaScript to generate the objects, append them to the appropriate form and when the user gets to that form, display it to the screen. I generate my objects (I'll use text fields for example) as follows: function createText( txtName, txtValue, txtTop, txtLeft, txtWidth, isDisabled ) { var newTxt = document.createElement( "INPUT" ); newTxt.name = txtName; newTxt.id = txtName; newTxt.setAttribute( "STYLE", "position:absolute; left:" + txtLeft + "px; width:" + txtWidth + "px; top:" + txtTop + "px"); newTxt.type = "TEXT"; newTxt.value = txtValue; newTxt.disabled = isDisabled; return newTxt; } This is pretty straight forward but my question is while it works out nicely in Firefox and it places the objects where I define, IE places them apparently relatively and Opera doesn't show text on my buttons. Here's hoping there is an easy fix! Anybody know if the IE 8 compatibility mode does a high enough fidelity job replicating IE 7 behavior that we can effective use it as a substitute for testing web sites in IE 7 itself? Hi folks, I'm developing a website for work and one of the features I want to implement is when the user hovers their mouse over an item in a drop down menu the proper trigger is fired. In FF and Opera it works beautifully though IE 7 is giving me serious grief. My HTML is as follows: <select name="Admin Dropdown" style="width:250px; position:relative; top:-66px; left:10px" /> <option value="Profile" id="ProfileOpt" onmouseover="profileDesc();" onClick="profileEdit();" onSelect="profileEdit();" />Edit Profile</option> <option value="Employees" id="EmployeesOpt" onmouseover="employeesDesc();" onClick="employeesEdit();" />Edit Employees</option> <option value="Menu" id="MenuOpt" onmouseover="menuDesc();" onClick="menuEdit();"/>Update Menu</option> </select> The functions modify a text box on the form as follows: document.adminForm.Instructions.value = "..."; I have a little init statement that executes the following on each of the elements in the menu: ... var element = document.getElementById( "ProfileOpt" ); element .onmouseover = descFunction(); ... It appeared to me that there were some incompatibility issues with some events and IE but maybe someone out in HTML-world can clear this up for me. Thanks! Hi, I am in the process of building a website for a client. This is my first ever site so I knew I would have a few issues. I have fixed all but one at present. Here is a link to my site which I have put live on a test server. http://leaf.greenxtian.com/grangefarm/index.html The naviagation bar and Lightbox2 images are moving when rolled over. This only happens in Internet Explorer 8. It is fine in FireFox and other browsers. It is only on the Services/Facilities Pages so I think it may be an issue with the CSS for Lightbox2? Maybe how I have set it up or just a bug in the coding? Does anyone know why this is happening? If so, do you know of a fix? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have spent hours trying to work this out. Hi, I'm having an issue with Firefox. I create the page graphics in Photoshop CS4 and slice it up. Then save the html and images into Dreamweaver where I add rollovers and a video clip. It looks perfect in IE and Chrome... But lines go across the screen in Firefox near the video. Why does Firefox do this? And is there a way to fix it without ruining how it looks in IE and Chrome? The site has been up for a year now and nobody has said anything or complains, but it drives me crazy and it does this whenever I try to make a new site this way with a video on it. I used Firebug, and when I change a <tr> value it fixes that area and makes another area look even worse. How can this be fixed? Thanks! This has been answered in here before, but I can't find the answer. I've got a simple setup and my main image is not aligning correctly in firefox, but is in IE. Here's the code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=iso-8859-1"> <meta name="generator" content="Adobe GoLive 6"> <title>Welcome to Adobe GoLive 6</title> </head> <body marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" bgcolor="#ffffff" background="images/back.jpg"> <div align="center"> <p><img src="images/main.jpg" alt="" height="315" align="top" width="750" border="0"></p> </div> </body> </html> Hi guys, I am just adding an image in the home page of citydental.ie. If I look at the site in Mozilla it is ok, the image is shows. If I look at the site on IE8 it doesnt. I guess whoever designed this site earlier did it for old browsers? How can I repair this problem? thanks a million guys Nat I'm working on a web-type project which will ultimately end up on DVD. The thing works well on a PC but on Macs I'm having issues. Navigation through the site is via button graphics contained in a folder called Buttons. The HTML I use to reference these buttons is "../../Buttons/ImageName.jpg" or similar. Macs return a placeholder with "???" rather than the image. I've tested this on most browsers including Safari and as I say it works on a PC but not on a Mac. Is it my coding or am I missing something? Hello, I'm new to webpage design and know very little HTML, but I am making a site with the help of a template and it seems to be working perfectly in Chrome, Firefox and Opera, but the moment I open the page in IE the frames are all broken and nothing is where it should be, could someone take a moment of there time and check the code below and maybe correct/clean it up it for me so I know where I have gone wrong, could you explain also why it works ok in those browsers and not IE? Thanks in advance.

The site works fine in IE6 and IE 7 but in IE 8 the page jumps left and right around 7-10 pixels while browsing. The same happens with Mozilla Firefox 3.0.11 also. I had designed the layout in tables however used a wrapper div tag to align my site at center. If I keep the site left align there is no jump. Also i had used div tags within td tags to create menu using ul and li tags. Can the use of divs be a reason for that jump. Please help if you had already faced this issue. Sanjay I'm currently working on my site but I'm stuck on a IE8 compatibility error. Here is the link: http://www.mym2webdesign.com/campustitle/shannon.html This is how IE shows the page: http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/10/iesucks.jpg In every other browser the page works fine, but when I tried it on IE8 the text overlaps. I've spent hours trying to look for a solution but no success. If anyone knows where the problem please let me know! Thank you for you time! I am a novice web admin. I am having an issue with placing a sign up form on my web site. It look good in IE8 or FF, but anything older (IE7) it looks horrible. See Attachments.

However, the next day I come into work and find that one of the pages have stopped working (It only shows the background and footer), and an image in the welcome intro text on the index.html does not show (as if I didn't code it in at all). This only happens on IE though yet works perfectly fine on Chrome and FireFox. I'm not sure if this is due to IE having it's own personal cache and not updating it properly? Yet if I edit the welcome text to show a new message, it will show that. www.abbeymill.com is the URL and the Function Bookings page is the one which does not show properly. Please view both index.html and the function bookings page in Chrome and IE. I would really love a saviour to help me figure this mind boggling issue out W3C says it all validates fine aswell. Browser only accepts HTML pages, right ? If there is something non-html, then browser will not display it. Question is, how does browser diplay PDF files ? is there a tag like <image> to display PDf files ? I am sending a request through my browser to server. Server accesses another program and this program extracts information from a page which has non-html tags. How will these tags be taken care of for forwarding it to browser ? Thanks Hello Everyone, I am new to web design and i designed a website which is good with all browsers except the new Internet explorer 7. Can anyone advise me on what do to so that it will be compatible with the explorer 7. What happened is " The menu of my web pages should be showing only when you click it but because it is not compatible with the new explorer, it open up and display all hidden menu. Can you help pls. |
